Zoom Controller Select This to Bring up an On-Screen Button That Can Control Zoom Features iOS Almost 70% of the VI community who use a smartphone use an iPhone. The accessibility on iOS is widely recognised as the leading standard and it continues to improve with every update. 2020s update to iOS14 was no exception. On devices that run iOS there are many ways that you can enhance and adapt the options to suit your eye condition. These can range from adjusting the text size and screen colour to enhance the display, to using the built-in screen reader – voiceover. Top tip it is good practice to have the home screen on phones and tablets set to a solid colour to prevent visual crowding and improve contrast. This can easily be done by blocking the camera and taking a photo this black photo can then be saved as the new wallpaper. Display and brightness Opening this in the settings menu allows you to initially adjust the display settings this is the first step towards personalising the device choosing features such as dark mode and altering the text size. For low vision users Bold text is recommended. Night shift is a useful feature which removes the blue light from the screen – it can be set to come on at dusk and is designed to aid sleep. The filter can be adjusted and will reduce glare from the screen. Page 1 of 11 Accessibility Clicking accessibility in the settings menu brings up a host of features, the top section of this menu is relevant to visual impairment. Voiceover Voiceover is the screen reader that is present in all iOS devices. Voiceover will read out to you what is selected on the screen and works universally across all apps. Voiceover changes the way a user interacts with the device using either touchscreen gestures or keyboard shortcuts if an external keyboard has been connected. Voiceover settings can be adjusted to personalise the user experience at all levels. The voice, language and speaking rate can be set as well as intricate adjustments such as assigning different voices to different apps, for example, the home screen can be read by one voice at a much faster rate than messages which are read in another voice. Pronunciation editor This allows a list of words or phrases to be created and pronounced by voiceover how the user prefers. The adjustments are limitless all aspects of the iOS device can be controlled using voiceovers series of gestures and shortcuts. Voiceover will also recognise and describe images and pictures which do not have alt text added (new features on iOs14). It has a basic OCR (optical character recognition) built in as well so can read some text within pictures. Page 2 of 11 Rotor control It is worth exploring the various and may features which can be added to the voiceover rotor control. This is a virtual on-screen dial which can have up to 12 settings on any one screen or app added. Rotating two fingers clock wise or anti-clock wise will navigate through the settings and once the preferred setting has been reached one finger swipe up or down will adjust that setting. For example, rotating two fingers until you hear speaking rate, swipe up with one finger will increase the speed of the voice and swiping down will reduce the speed. Voiceover and braille Voiceover includes system wide support for braille chord in six and eight dot braille. The braille keyboard is available in the rotor. Once activated it can be used to type, find apps, launch content and operate within apps. IOs supports over 80 international Braille tables and more than 70 refreshable braille displays. You can connect a Bluetooth wireless braille display to read voiceover output. IOS will automatically convert text to braille and vice versa. Braille displays with input keys can be used to control your device when voiceover is activated. Top tip. It is worthwhile to access the voiceover practice screen to go over the gestures without opening any apps or inadvertently making any calls! Page 3 of 11 Zoom This is the magnification feature that allows you to zoom in anywhere on the screen to a level that is suitable for you. Activating Zoom • Open the Settings app. • In the Settings app, select Accessibility. • Select Zoom. Set the button at the right to on. Using Zoom Once turned on the default gesture to activate zoom is a three finger double tap. Moving around the screen Three finger tap and drag will move the zoomed area around the screen in full screen mode. One finger tap and drag the bottom of the window to move the lens around the screen. Zooming in and out Three finger double tap and hold. Drag up to zoom in drag down to zoom out. Personalising Zoom features Zoom features can be adjusted to suit ones needs. In accessibility under the zoom heading the following can be adjusted. Follow Focus Select this feature to On and Zoom will automatically focus on the text box as you type. Page 4 of 11 Smart Typing When enabled the smart typing automatically switches to window zoom to allow the onscreen keyboard to be fully displayed. Keyboard Shortcuts Select this feature to use shortcut commands to control zoom on an external keyboard. Zoom Controller Select this to bring up an on-screen button that can control zoom features. This is handy if you find the three finger gestures awkward. Double tap the controller to activate/deactivate zoom. Single tap to bring up a list of zoom features: • Zooming in /out • Choose region • Choose filter • Slider to adjust zoom level The Zoom Controller button can be moved around the screen with a one finger touch and drag gesture. It can also be customised in the zoom controller menu. any of the tap gestures to assign a new action to it. Zoom Region Zoom provides two options of region: Page 5 of 11 • Full screen – select this to zoom in on the whole screen when zoom is activated. The three finger double tap gesture will centre the screen on your tap when zooming in. • Window. This is an adjustable lens which can be moved around the screen as well as zooming in and out. The zoom lens can be resized by double tapping on the bottom of the zoom window, tapping on resize lens and dragging the corners out or in. Zoom Filter Select this to choose a filter when activating zoom to improve contrast, if necessary. Maximum Zoom Level This can be set from 1.5z up to 15z magnification. Magnifier This will turn the iOS device into a digital magnifier – once activated the magnifier is turned on by one of the accessibility shortcut options or it can be added in the control center. As well as the slider to zoom in and out of the camera shot the magnifier has additional features that can be adjusted and activated. • Brightness • Contrast • Filters • Torch Page 6 of 11 There is also the option to take a freeze frame and zoom in photos taken in magnifier are not saved to the camera roll. Display and text size The features in this section provide further enhancement to the adjustments that can be made in the display and brightness section of the main settings menu. It is recommended to explore these features when adjusting the accessibility settings initially as in many cases these could be all that is required. Enabling larger text will provide more than just increasing the font size by a few points. Various filters can be added. Smart invert will allow pictures to be seen in original colour while the text is inverted. Motion Some messages and apps have quite dramatic features when they open which can be very off putting – this section gives the user control of these. Spoken content Very useful as the features in this section can enable a user to read a text heavy document aloud without accessing the full voiiceover features. The controls are simple and listed below the features – a controller can also be added to the screen similar to that for zoom and the setting for this can be adjusted. Page 7 of 11 Audio description Activating this feature will automatically play any audio description if available when watching videos. Accessibility shortcuts Most of the accessibility features can be set to the accessibility shortcut. Traditionally this is the triple click of the power button (or home key on SE or older models). The click can be slowed in home key or side button settings. Any number of accessibility features can be added to this shortcut but they can also be relocated as a shortcut elsewhere. The magnifier can be added to the control panel for example and other accessibly features can be assigned to the back tap. Back tap Found in the touch section of accessibility shortcuts can be assigned to either double tap ar triple tap. Tapping the back of the phone two or three times will open the feature of your choice. Page 8 of 11 Siri and Voice control Siri Getting used to using siri on iOS can really improve the experience for people with a visual impairment. Especially when “hey siri” is activated. Many features and actions can be activated and undertaken eyes free and in the case of “hey siri” hands free as well. Once activated the easiest way to find out what Siri can do is to ask Siri what can it do “hey Siri, What can I ask you?” Voice control Voice control takes this a step further by giving the user control of more functions on the device than Siri has .

  • Songs for Waiters: a Lyrical Play in Two Acts
    SONGS FOR WAITERS: A LYRICAL PLAY IN TWO ACTS Thesis Submitted to The College of Arts and Sciences of the UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON In Partial Fulfillment for the Requirements for The Degree of Master of Arts in English By Andrew Eberly Dayton, Ohio May, 2012 SONGS FOR WAITERS: A LYRICAL PLAY IN TWO ACTS Name: Eberly, Andrew M. APPROVED BY: ___________________ Albino Carillo, M.F.A. Faculty Advisor ____________________ John P. McCombe, Ph.D. Faculty Reader ____________________ Andrew Slade, Ph.D. Faculty Reader ii ABSTRACT SONGS FOR WAITERS: A LYRICAL PLAY IN TWO ACTS Name: Eberly, Andrew M. University of Dayton Advisor: Albino Carillo, M.F.A. Through the creative mediums of lyrical poetry, monologues, and traditional dramatic scenes, Songs for Waiters concerns an owner and two employees at an urban bar/restaurant. Through their work, their interactions with the public and each other, and reflecting on their own lives, the three men unpack contemporary debates on work, violence, and sexuality. The use of lyrical poetry introduces the possibility of these portions of the play being put to music in a performance setting, as the play is written to be workshopped and performed live in the future. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT……………………………………………………………….…………..…iii ACT I…………………………………………………………………………...…………1 ACT II……………………………………………………………………………………35 iv ACT I The play begins with no actors onstage. The set consists of café tables upstage right and left and a bar upstage center. The décor is that of a classic bar with some history. The bar is George’s—known for good food. It’s independent, casual, eclectic, open late, and located on High Street in Columbus, Ohio.

  • Remote Supervised Review Sessions
    Remote Supervised Review Sessions In person review sessions are vital for color, audio and finishing workflows. Real-time interactions and viewing the same calibrated display(s) allow for efficiency in the finishing process. We’re always happy to have you come to our Silver Spring, MD location, but understand that’s not always possible for a variety of reasons. Over the past few years, we’ve invested heavily in remote technology that allows us to stream in real-time the output of our color grading systems to your computer, tablet or smartphone. The quality of this stream is incredible - in fact, many clients say it's just like being in the color suite with one of our colorists. This document is to help prepare you for a remote session. It includes information on our preferred solution - Streambox - as well as tips on how to configure your screen for the best results. Screen & Environment Prep Monitoring accuracy is vital in any color workflow. While a Streambox session is as close as we can get to an in-person supervised review session, you’re likely not going to have reference monitoring at your location. With a few simple changes to your screen and environment, you’ll be able to get closer to the reference environment of our studio. ​ ​ Screen Prep (iPhone, iPad) We highly recommend new(er) Apple iOS devices like iPad Pro, iPad Air, iPhone 11. These screens are highly accurate but need a few adjustments to make your viewing experience better. 1. Open the Settings App and then choose Display & Brightness 2.
